METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT AND DIAGNOSIS OF
CANCER
[0001] This application claims priority US Provisional Application No.
61/529,500, filed August 31, 2011, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
Field of the Invention [0002] The field of the invention relates to cancer and the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
Background [0003] Early detection of cancer can impact treatment outcomes and disease progression. Typically, cancer detection relies on diagnostic information obtained from biopsy, x-rays, CAT scans, NMR and the like. These procedures may be invasive, time consuming and expensive. Moreover, they have limitations with regard to sensitivity and specificity. There is a need in the field of cancer diagnostics for a highly specific, highly sensitive, rapid, inexpensive, and relatively non-invasive method of diagnosing cancer.
Various embodiments of the invention described below meet this need as well as other needs existing in the field of diagnosing and treating cancer.
Summary of the Invention [0004] Embodiments of the disclosure provide methods of diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of cancer. Other embodiments provide compositions relating to the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of cancer.
[0005] In certain embodiments the invention provides a method of detecting cancer in a subject comprising a) obtaining a sample from a subject; b) contacting the sample obtained from the subject with one or more agents that detect one or more markers expressed by a cancer cell c) contacting a non-cancerous cell with the one or more agents from b); and d) comparing the expression level of the marker in the sample obtained from the subject with the expression level in the non-cancerous cell, wherein a higher level of expression of the marker in the sample compared to the non-cancerous cell indicates that the subject has cancer.
[0006] In certain embodiments the invention provides a method of detecting cancer in a subject comprising a) obtaining a sample from a subject; b) contacting the sample obtained from the subject with one or more agents that detect expression of at least one of the markers listed in Table 1; c) contacting a non-cancerous cell, with the one or more agents from b); and d) comparing the expression level of one or more of the markers listed in Table lin the sample obtained from the subject with the expression level of one or more of the markers listed in Table 1 in the non-cancerous cell, wherein a higher level of expression of one or more of the markers listed in Table lin the sample obtained from the subject compared to the non-cancerous cell indicates that the subject has cancer.
[00071 In some embodiments the invention provides a method of detecting cancer in a subject comprising a) obtaining a sample from a subject b) contacting the sample obtained from the subject with one or more agents that detect expression of one or more of the markers encoded by genes chosen from Homo sapiens preferentially expressed antigen in melanoma (PRAME), Homo sapiens anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), Homo sapiens chromosome 12 open reading frame 56 (C12orf56), Homo sapiens Down syndrome critical region gene 6 (DSCR6), Homo sapiens guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), gamma transducing activity polypeptide 1 (GNGT1), Homo sapiens solute carrier family 35, member (SLC35D3), Homo sapiens chromosome 2 open reading frame 70 (C2orf70), Homo sapiens cadherin, EGF LAG seven-pass G-type receptor 3 (flamingo homolog, Drosophila) (CELSR3), Homo sapiens collagen, type X, alpha I (COL10A1), Homo sapiens Down syndrome critical region gene 8 (DSCR8), transcript variant 2, Homo sapiens lin-28 homolog B (C. elegans) (LIN28B), Homo sapiens mesoderm specific transcript homolog (mouse) (MEST), transcript variant 2, Homo sapiens matrix metallopeptidase 12 (macrophage elastase) (MMP12), Homo sapiens 51-13-binding domain kinase 1 (SBK1), AGENCOURT 10229596 NIH MGC 141 Homo sapiens cDNA clone EVIAGE:6563923 5, Homo sapiens complement component 1, q subcomponent-like 4 (C1QL4), mRNA, Homo sapiens chromosome 9 open reading frame 140 (C9orf140), Homo sapiens cancer/testis antigen family 45, member A4 (CT45A4), Homo sapiens chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10), Homo sapiens delta-like 3 (Drosophila) (DLL3), Homo sapiens potassium voltage-gated channel, KQT-like subfamily, member 2 (KCNQ2), Homo sapiens LEM domain containing I (LEMD1), Homo sapiens similar to GAGE-2 protein (G antigen 2) (L00645037), Homo sapiens similar to microtubule-associated protein 6 isoform 1 (LOC647315), Homo sapiens matrix metallopeptidase 11 (stromelysin 3) (MMP11), Homo sapiens NK2 transcription factor related, locus 5 (Drosophila) (NKX2-5), Homo sapiens parathyroid hormone-like hormone (PTHLE1), Homo sapiens sal-like 4 (Drosophila) (SALL4), Homo sapiens small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 56 (SNORD56), Homo sapiens CSAG family, member 3A (CSAG3A), Homo sapiens family with sequence similarity 83, member A (FAM83A), transcript variant 2, Homo sapiens similar to hCG1812074 (LOC100134331), Homo sapiens hypothetical protein L00642477, transcript variant 2 (L00642477), Homo sapiens hypothetical protein L00645099, transcript variant I (L00645099), Homo sapiens similar to TP53TG3 protein, transcript variant 2 (L00729264), Homo sapiens protocadherin beta 2 (PCDHB2), Homo sapiens peptidase inhibitor 3, skin-derived (SKALP) (P13), Homo sapiens TP53 target 3 (TP53TG3), Homo sapiens cathepsin L2 (CTSL2), Homo sapiens gremlin 1, cysteine knot superfamily, homolog (Xenopus laevis) (GREM1), Homo sapiens potassium channel, subfamily K, member 17 (KCNK17), transcript variant 1, Homo sapiens kringle containing transmembrane protein 2 (KREMEN2), transcript variant 2, Homo sapiens hypothetical protein L0C100130082, transcript variant 2 (L0C100130082), Homo sapiens hypothetical L00645682 (L00645682), Homo sapiens olfactomedin 4 (OLFM4), Homo sapiens one cut homeobox 2 (ONECUT2), Homo sapiens protein phosphatase, EF-hand calcium binding domain 1 (PPEF I), Homo sapiens reprimo-like (RPRML), Homo sapiens wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 10A (WNT10A), Homo sapiens annexin A13 (ANXA13), Homo sapiens hypothetical protein FLI22184 (FLi22184), Homo sapiens laminin, ganuna 2 (LAMC2), Homo sapiens mitogen-activated protein kinase 15 (MAPKI5), Homo sapiens nucleoporin 210kDa (NUP210), Homo sapiens asparagine-linked glycosylation 1-like (ALGIL), Homo sapiens guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), gamma 4 (GNG4), Homo sapiens harakiri, BCL2 interacting protein (contains only BH3 domain) (1-IRK), Homo sapiens nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 3 (NFE2L3), Homo sapiens tet oncogene 1 (11,T1), Homo sapiens septin 3 (SEPT3), Homo sapiens achaete-scute complex homolog I (Drosophila) (ASCL1), Homo sapiens BCL2-interacting killer (apoptosis-inducing) (BIK), Homo sapiens chromosome 21 open reading frame 129 (C21orf129), Homo sapiens calpain 12 (CAPN12), Homo sapiens chromobox homolog 8 (Pc class hotnolog, Drosophila) (CBX8), Homo sapiens chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 20 (CCL20), Homo sapiens chorionic gonadotropin, beta polypeptide 5 (CGB5), Homo sapiens elaudin 9 (CLDN9), Homo sapiens chondrosarcoma associated gene I (CSAG1), 1-lotno sapiens CSAG

I. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
100951 Before the present compositions and methods are described, it is to be understood that this invention is not limited to the particular processes, compositions, or methodologies described, as these may vary. It is also to be understood that the terminology used in the description is for the purpose of describing the particular versions or embodiments only, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention which will be limited only by the appended claims. Unless defmed otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art.
Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of embodiments of the present disclosure, the preferred methods, devices, and materials are now described. All publications mentioned herein are incorporated by reference in their entirety. Nothing herein is to be construed as an admission that the invention is not entitled to antedate such disclosure by virtue of prior invention.
[009G] As used herein, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" include plural reference unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to a "therapeutic"
is a reference to one or more therapeutics and equivalents thereof known to those skilled in the art, and so forth, 100971 As used herein, the term "about" means plus or minus 10% of the numerical value of the number with which it is being used. Therefore, about 50% means in the range of 45% to 55%.
[0098] "Agent" as used herein refers to a molecule that specifically binds to a cancer associated sequence or a molecule encoded for by a cancer associated sequence.
Examples of agents include nucleic acid molecules, such as DNA and proteins such as antibodies. The agent may be linked with a label or detectible substance as described infra.
[0099] "Administering," when used in conjunction with a therapeutic, means to administer a therapeutic directly into or onto a target tissue or to administer a therapeutic to a patient whereby the therapeutic positively impacts the tissue to which it is targeted. Thus, as used herein, the term "administering," when used in conjunction with a therapeutic, can include, but is not limited to, providing the therapeutic into or onto the target tissue; providing the therapeutic systemically to a patient by, e.g., intravenous injection whereby the therapeutic reaches the target tissue; providing the therapeutic in the form of the encoding sequence thereof to the target tissue (e.g., by so-called gene-therapy techniques).
"Administering" a composition may be accomplished by oral administration, intravenous injection, intraperitoneal injection, intramuscular injection, subcutaneous injection, transdermal diffusion or electrophoresis, local injection, extended release delivery devices including locally implanted extended release devices such as bioerodible or reservoir-based implants, as protein therapeutics or as nucleic acid therapeutic via gene therapy vectors, topical administration, or by any of these methods in combination with other known techniques. Such combination techniques include, without limitation, heating, radiation and ultrasound.
1001001 The term "amplify" is used to mean creating an amplification product which may include, for example, additional target molecules, or target-like molecules or molecules complementary to the target molecule, which molecules are created by virtue of the presence of the target molecule in the sample. In the situation where the target is a nucleic acid, an amplification product can be made enzymatically with DNA or RNA polymerases or reverse transcriptases, or any combination thereof 1001011 The term "animal," "patient" or "subject" as used herein includes, but is not limited to, humans, non-human primates and non-human vertebrates such as wild, domestic and farm animals including any mammal, such as cats, dogs, cows, sheep, pigs, horses, rabbits, rodents such as mice and rats. In some embodiments, the term "subject," "patient" or "animal" refers to a male. In some embodiments, the term "subject," "patient"
or "animal"
refers to a female.
1001021 The term "biological sources" as used herein refers to the sources from which the target polynucleotides and/or proteins or peptides may be derived. The source can be of any form of "sample" as described above, including but not limited to, cell, tissue or fluid.
"Different biological sources" can refer to different cells/tissues/organs of the same individual, or cells/tissues/organs from different individuals of the same species, or cells/tissues/organs from different species.
[00103] The term "capture reagent" refers to a reagent, for example an antibody or antigen binding protein, capable of binding a target molecule or analyte to be detected in a sample.
[00104] The term "gene expression result" refers to a qualitative and/or quantitative result regarding the expression of a gene or gene product. The gene expression result can be an amount or copy number of the gene, the RNA encoded by the gene, the mRNA
encoded by the gene, the protein product encoded by the gene, or any combination thereof.
The gene expression result can also be normalized or compared to a standard. The gene expression result can be used, for example, to determine if a gene is expressed, overexpressed, or differentially expressed in two or more samples.
[00105] The term "homology," as used herein, refers to a degree of complementarity.
There may be partial homology or complete homology. The word "identity" may substitute for the word "homology." A partially complementary nucleic acid sequence that at least partially inhibits an identical sequence from hybridizing to a target nucleic acid is referred to as "substantially homologous," The inhibition of hybridization of the completely complementary nucleic acid sequence to the target sequence may be examined using a hybridization assay (Southern or northern blot, solution hybridization, and the like) under conditions of reduced stringency. A substantially homologous sequence or hybridization probe will compete for and inhibit the binding of a completely homologous sequence to the target sequence under conditions of reduced stringency. This is not to say that conditions of reduced stringency are such that non-specific binding is permitted, as reduced stringency conditions require that the binding of two sequences to one another be a specific (i.e,, a selective) interaction. The absence of non-specific binding may be tested by the use of a second target sequence which lacks even a partial degree of complementarily (e.g., less than about 30% homology or identity). In the absence of non-specific binding, the substantially homologous sequence or probe will not hybridize to the second non-complementary target sequence. , [00106] As used herein, the term "hybridization" or "hybridizing" refers to hydrogen bonding, which may be Watson-Crick, Hoogsteen or reversed Hoogsteen hydrogen bonding, between complementary nucleoside or nucleotide bases. For example, adenine and thymine are complementary nucleobases which pair through the formation of hydrogen bonds, "Complementary," as used herein in reference to nucleic acid molecules refers to the capacity for precise pairing between two nucleotides. For example, if a nucleotide at a certain position of an oligonucleotide is capable of hydrogen bonding with a nucleotide at the same position of a DNA or RNA molecule, then the oligonucleotide and the DNA or RNA are considered to be complementary to each other at that position. The oligonucleotide and the DNA
or RNA are complementary to each other when a sufficient number of corresponding positions in each molecule are occupied by nucleotides which can hydrogen bond with each other.
Thus, "specifically hybridizable" and "complementary" are terms which are used to indicate a sufficient degree of complementarily or precise pairing such that stable and specific binding occurs between the oligonucleotide and the DNA or RNA target. It is understood in the art that a nucleic acid sequence need not be 100% complementaiy to that of its target nucleic acid to be specifically hybridizable. A nucleic acid compound is specifically hybridizable when there is binding of the molecule to the target, and there is a sufficient degree of complementarily to avoid non-specific binding of the molecule to non-target sequences under conditions in which specific binding is desired, i.e., under physiological conditions in the case of in vivo assays or therapeutic treatment, and in the case of in vitro assays, under conditions in which the assays are performed.
1001071 The term "inhibiting" includes the administration of a compound of the present disclosure to prevent the onset of the symptoms, alleviating the symptoms, or eliminating the disease, condition or disorder. The term "inhibiting" may also refer to lowering the expression level of gene, such as a gene encoding a cancer associated sequence.
Expression level of RNA and/or protein may be lowered.
[00108] The term "label" and/or detectible substance refers to a composition capable of producing a detectable signal indicative of the presence of the target polynucleotide in an assay sample. Suitable labels include radioisotopes, nucleotide chromophores, enzymes, substrates, fluorescent molecules, chemiltuninescent moieties, magnetic particles, bioluminescent moieties, and the like. As such, a label is any composition detectable by a device or method, such as, but not limited to, a spectroscopic, photochemical, biochemical, immunochemical, electrical, optical, chemical detection device or any other appropriate device. In some embodiments, the label may be detectable visually without the aid of a device, The term "label" is used to refer to any chemical group or moiety having a detectable physical property or any compound capable of causing a chemical group or moiety to exhibit a detectable physical property, such as an enzyme that catalyzes conversion of a substrate into a detectable product. The term "label" also encompasses compounds that inhibit the expression of a particular physical property. The label may also be a compound that is a member of a binding pair, the other member of which bears a detectable physical property.
[00109] As used herein, "microarray" refers to a linear or two-dimensional array of, for example, discrete regions, each having a defined area, formed on the surface of a solid support. The density of the discrete regions on a microarray is determined by the total numbers of target polynucleotides to be detected on the surface of a single solid phase support, preferably at least about 50/cm2, more preferably at least about 100/cm2, even more preferably at least about 500/cm2, and still more preferably at least about 1,000/cm2. As used herein, a DNA microarray is an array of oligonucleotide primers placed on a chip or other surfaces used to identify, amplify, detect, or clone target polynucleotides. Since the position of each particular group of primers in the array is known, the identities of the target polynucleotides can be determined based on their binding to a particular position in the microarray.
[00110] As used herein, the term "naturally occurring" refers to sequences or structures that may be in a form normally found in nature. "Naturally occurring" may include sequences in a form normally found in any animal.
1001111 As used herein, the use of "nucleic acid," "polynueleotide" or "oligonucleotide" or equivalents herein means at least two nucleotides covalently linked together. In some embodiments, an oligonucleotide is an oligomer of 6, 8, 10, 12, 20, 30 or up to 100 nucleotides. In sonic embodiments, an oligonucleotide is an oligomer of at least 6, 8, 10, 12, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 150, 200, 300, 400, or 500 nucleotides. A
"polynucleotide" or "oligonucleotide" may comprise DNA, RNA, PNA or a polymer of nucleotides linked by phosphodiester and/or any alternate bonds.
[00112] The phrases "percent homology," "% homology," "percent identity," or identity" refer to the percentage of sequence similarity found in a comparison of two or more amino acid or nucleic acid sequences. Percent identity can be determined electronically, e.g., by using the MEGALIGN program (LASERGENE software package, DNASTAR). The MEGALIGN program can create alignments between two or more sequences according to different methods, e.g., the Clustal Method. (Higgins, D. G. and P. M. Sharp (1988) Gene 73:237-244.) The Clustal algorithm groups sequences into clusters by examining the distances between all pairs. The clusters are aligned painvise and then in groups. The percentage similarity between two amino acid sequences, e.g., sequence A and sequence B, is calculated by dividing the length of sequence A, minus the number of gap residues in sequence A, minus the number of gap residues in sequence B, into the sum of the residue matches between sequence A and sequence B, times one hundred. Gaps of low or of no homology between the two amino acid sequences are not included in determining percentage similarity. Percent identity between nucleic acid sequences can also be calculated by the Clustal Method, or by other methods known in the art, such as the Jotun Hein Method. (See, e.g., Hein, J. (1990) Methods Enzymol. 183:626-645.) Identity between sequences can also be determined by other methods known in the art, e.g., by varying hybridization conditions.
[00113] By "pharmaceutically acceptable", it is meant the carrier, diluent or excipient must be compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the recipient thereof.
[00114] As used herein, a polynucleotide "derived from" a designated sequence refers to a polynucleotide sequence which is comprised of a sequence of approximately at least about 6 nucleotides, preferably at least about 8 nucleotides, more preferably at least about 10-12 nucleotides, and even more preferably at least about 15-20 nucleotides corresponding to a region of the designated nucleotide sequence. "Corresponding" means homologous to or complementary to the designated sequence. Preferably, the sequence of the region from which the polynucleotide is derived is homologous to or complementary to a sequence that is unique to a cancer associated gene.
[00115] As used herein, the term "sample" refers to composition that is being tested or treated with a reagent, such as but not limited to a therapeutic, drug, or candidate agent.
Samples may be obtained from subjects. In some embodiments, the sample may be blood, plasma, serum, or any combination thereof. A sample may be derived from blood, plasma, serum, or any combination thereof. Other typical samples include, but are not limited to, any bodily fluid obtained from a mammalian subject, tissue biopsy, sputum, lymphatic fluid, blood cells (e.g., peripheral blood mononuclear cells), tissue or fine needle biopsy samples, urine, peritoneal fluid, colostrums, breast milk, fetal fluid, fecal material, tears, pleural fluid, or cells therefrom. The sample may be processed in some manner before being used in a method described herein, for example a particular component to be analyzed or tested according to any of the methods described infra. One or more molecules may be isolated from a sample.
[00116] The terms "specific binding," "specifically binds," and the like, refer to instances where two or more molecules form a complex that is measurable under physiologic or assay conditions and is selective. An antibody or antigen binding protein or other molecule is said to "specifically bind" to a protein, antigen, or epitope if, under appropriately selected conditions, such binding is not substantially inhibited, while at the same time non-specific binding is inhibited. Specific binding is characterized by a high affinity and is selective for the compound, protein, epitope, or antigen. Nonspecific binding usually has a low affinity.
[00117] As used herein, a "recombinant protein" is a protein made using recombinant techniques, for example, but not limited to, through the expression of a recombinant nucleic acid as depicted above. A recombinant protein may be distinguished from naturally occurring protein by at least one or more characteristics. For example, the protein may be isolated or purified away from some or all of the proteins and compounds with which it is normally associated in its wild type host, and thus may be substantially pure. For example, an isolated protein is unaccompanied by at least some of the material with which it is normally associated in its natural state, preferably constituting at least about 0.5%, more preferably at least about 5% by weight of the total protein in a given sample. A substantially pure protein comprises about 50-75%, about 80%, or about 90%. In some embodiments, a substantially pure protein comprises about 80-99%, 85-99%, 90-99%, 95-99%, or 97-99% by weight of the total protein.
A recombinant protein can also include the production of a cancer associated protein from one organism (e.g. human) in a different organism (e.g. yeast, E. coli, or the like) or host cell.
Alternatively, the protein may be made at a significantly higher concentration than is normally seen, through the use of an inducible promoter or high expression promoter, such that the protein is made at increased concentration levels. Alternatively, the protein may be in a form not normally found in nature, as in the addition of an epitope tag or amino acid substitutions, insertions and deletions, as discussed herein.
[00118] The term "support" refers to conventional supports such as beads, particles, dipsticks, fibers, filters, membranes, and silane or silicate supports such as glass slides.
[00119] As used herein, the term "tag," "sequence tag" or "primer tag sequence"
refers to an oligonucleotide with specific nucleic acid sequence that serves to identify a batch of polynucleotides bearing such tags therein. Polynucleotides from the same biological source are covalently tagged with a specific sequence tag so that in subsequent analysis the polynucleotide can be identified according to its source of origin. The sequence tags also serve as primers for nucleic acid amplification reactions.
[00120] As used herein, the term "therapeutic" or "therapeutic agent" means an agent that can be used to treat, combat, ameliorate, prevent or improve an unwanted condition or disease of a patient. In part, embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to the treatment of cancer or the decrease in proliferation of cells. In some embodiments, the term "therapeutic" or "therapeutic agent" may refer to any molecule that associates with or affects the target marker, its expression or its function. In various embodiments, such therapeutics may include molecules such as, for example, a therapeutic cell, a therapeutic peptide, a therapeutic gene, a therapeutic compound, or the like, that associates with or affects the target marker, its expression or its function.
[00121] A "therapeutically effective amount" or "effective amount" of a composition is a predetermined amount calculated to achieve the desired effect, i.e., to inhibit, block, or reverse the activation, migration, or proliferation of cells. In some embodiments, the effective amount is a prophylactic amount. In some embodiments, the effective amount is an amount used to medically treat the disease or condition. The specific dose of a composition administered according to this invention to obtain therapeutic and/or prophylactic effects will, of course, be determined by the particular circumstances surrounding the case, including, for example, the composition administered, the route of administration, and the condition being treated. It will be understood that the effective amount administered will be determined by the physician in the light of the relevant circumstances including the condition to be treated, the choice of composition to be administered, and the chosen route of administration. A
therapeutically effective amount of composition of this invention is typically an amount such that when it is administered in a physiologically tolerable excipient composition, it is sufficient to achieve an effective systemic concentration or local concentration in the targeted tissue.
[00122] The terms "treat," "treated," or "treating" as used herein can refer to both therapeutic treatment or prophylactic or preventative measures, wherein the.
object is to prevent or slow down (lessen) an undesired physiological condition, disorder or disease, or to obtain beneficial or desired clinical results. In some embodiments, the term may refer to both treating and preventing. For the purposes of this disclosure, beneficial or desired clinical results include, but are not limited to, alleviation of symptoms; diminishment of the extent of the condition, disorder or disease; stabilization (i.e., not worsening) of the state of the condition, disorder or disease; delay in onset or slowing of the progression of the condition, disorder or disease; amelioration of the condition, disorder or disease state;
and remission (whether partial or total), whether detectable or undetectable, or enhancement or improvement of the condition, disorder or disease. Treatment includes eliciting a clinically significant response without excessive levels of side effects. Treatment also includes prolonging survival as compared to expected survival if not receiving treatment.
[001231 The term "tissue" as used herein, refers to any aggregation of similarly specialized cells that are united in the performance of a particular function.
1001241 As used herein, the term "optional" or "optionally" refers to embodiments where the subsequently described structure, event or circumstance may or may not occur, and that the description includes instances where the event occurs and instances where it does not.

Cancer Associated Sequences [001281 In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides for nucleic acid and protein sequences that are associated with cancer, herein termed "cancer associated" or "CA"
sequences. The nucleic acids and/or proteins may be encoded for by any of the genes provided below. The cancer associated sequences may be associated with any of the cancers disclosed infra. Thus the cancer associated sequences may be expressed in cancer cells found in tumors of any of the cancers disclosed infra. In some embodiments the cancer associate sequence is expressed at higher levels in a cancer cell found in a tumor, compared to a non-cancer cell, such as a non-cancer cell of the same tissue type found in the cancer.
[001291 In some embodiments, the term "cancer associated sequences" may indicate that the nucleotide or protein sequences are differentially expressed, activated, inactivated or =

altered in cancers as compared to normal tissue. Cancer associated sequences may include those that are up-regulated (i.e. expressed at a higher level), as well as those that are down-regulated (i.e. expressed at a lower level), in cancers. Cancer associated sequences can also include sequences that have been altered (i.e., translocations, truncated sequences or sequences with substitutions, deletions or insertions, including, but not limited to, point mutations) and show either the same expression profile or an altered profile.
In some embodiments, the cancer associated sequences are from humans; however, as will be appreciated by those in the art, cancer associated sequences from other organisms, including any subject, may be useful in animal models of disease and drug evaluation;
thus, other cancer associated sequences may be useful such as, without limitation, sequences from vertebrates, including mammals, including rodents (rats, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, etc.), primates, and farm animals (including sheep, goats, pigs, cows, horses, etc.). Cancer associated sequences from other organisms may be obtained using the techniques outlined herein.

Any one or combination of 2 or more of the foregoing cancer associated sequences may be used in any of the embodiments disclosed herein, including methods of diagnosing, detecting, visualizing and treating cancer, as well as compositions and kits related to the treatment, detection, visualization and diagnosis of cancer as described infra.
1001311 In some embodiments, cancer associated sequences may include both nucleic acid and amino acid sequences. In some embodiments, the cancer associated sequences may include sequences having at least about 60% homology with the disclosed sequences. In some embodiments, the cancer associated sequences may have at least about 65%, about 70%, about 75%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, about 97%, about 99%, about 99.8% homology with the disclosed sequences. In some embodiments, the cancer associated sequences may be "mutant nucleic acids". As used herein, "mutant nucleic acids" refers to deletion mutants, insertions, point mutations, substitutions, translocations.
1001321 In some embodiments, the cancer associated sequences are nucleic acids.
As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art and is described herein, cancer associated sequences of embodiments herein may be useful in a variety of applications including diagnostic applications to detect nucleic acids or their expression levels in a subject, therapeutic applications or a combination thereof. Further, the cancer associated sequences of etnbodiments herein may be used in screening applications; for example, generation of biochips comprising nucleic acid probes to the cancer associated sequences.
[00133] In some embodiments, the cancer associated sequences may be recombinant nucleic acids. By the term "recombinant nucleic acid" herein refers to nucleic acid molecules, originally formed in vitro, in general, by the manipulation of nucleic acid by polymerases and endonucleases, in a form not normally found in nature. Thus a recombinant nucleic acid may also be an isolated nucleic acid, in a linear form, or cloned in a vector formed in vitro by ligating DNA molecules that are not normally joined, are both considered recombinant for the purposes of this invention. It is understood that once a recombinant nucleic acid is made and reintroduced into a host cell or organism, it can replicate using the in vivo cellular machinery of the host cell rather than in vitro manipulations; however, such nucleic acids, once produced recombinantly, although subsequently replicated in vivo, are still considered recombinant or isolated for the purposes of the invention. As used herein, a "polynucleotide"
or "nucleic acid" is a polymeric form of nucleotides of any length, either ribonucleotides or deoxyribonucleotides. This term includes double- and single-stranded DNA and RNA. It also includes known types of modifications, for example, labels which are known in the art, methylation, "caps", substitution of one or more of the naturally occurring nucleotides with an analog, internucleotide modifications-such as, for example, those with uncharged linkages (e.g., phosphorothioates, phosphorodithioates, etc.), those containing pendant moieties, such as, for example proteins (including e.g., nucleases, toxins, antibodies, signal peptides, poly-L-lysine, etc.), those with intercalators (e.g., acridine, psoralen, etc.), those containing chelators (e.g., metals, radioactive metals, etc.), those containing alkylators, those with modified linkages (e.g., alpha anomeric nucleic acids, etc.), as well as unmodified forms of the polynucleotide.

All of these references are hereby expressly incorporated by reference. These modifications of the ribose-phosphate backbone may be done for a variety of reasons, for example to increase the stability and half-life of such molecules in physiological environments for use in anti-sense applications or as probes on a biochip.
[00135] As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, such nucleic acid analogs may be used in some embodiments of the present disclosure. In addition, mixtures of naturally occurring nucleic acids and analogs can be made; alternatively, mixtures of different nucleic acid analogs, and mixtures of naturally occurring nucleic acids and analogs may be made.
[00136] In some embodiments, the nucleic acids may be single stranded or double stranded or may contain portions of both double stranded or single stranded sequence. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the depiction of a single strand also defines the sequence of the other strand; thus the sequences described herein also includes the complement of the sequence. The nucleic acid may be DNA, both genomic and cDNA, RNA, or a hybrid, where the nucleic acid contains any combination of deoxyribo- and ribo-nucleotides, and any combination of bases, including unit adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, inosine, xanthine, hypoxanthine, isocytosine, isoguanine, etc. As used herein, the term "nucleoside" includes nucleotides and nucleoside and nucleotide analogs, and modified nucleosides such as amino modified nucleosides.

[00139] In some embodiments, the invention provides an isolated polypeptide, encoded within an open reading frame of a cancer associated sequence selected from the polynucleotide sequences shown in Table I, or its complement. In some embodiments, the invention provides an isolated polypeptide, wherein said polypeptide comprises the amino acid sequence encoded by a polynucleotide selected from the group consisting of the sequences disclosed in Table 1. In some embodiments, the invention provides an isolated polypeptide, wherein said polypeptide comprises the amino acid sequence encoded by a cancer associated polypeptide.
[00140] In some embodiments, the invention further provides an isolated polypeptide, comprising the amino acid sequence of an epitope of the amino acid sequence of a cancer associated polypeptide, wherein the polypeptide or fragment thereof may be attached to a solid support. In some embodiments the invention provides an isolated antibody (monoclonal or polyclonal) or antigen binding fragment thereof, that binds to such a polypeptide. The isolated antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof may be attached to a solid support, or further comprises a detectable label.
[00141] Some embodiments herein are directed to one or more sequences associated with cancer, including any cancer disclosed infra. The sequences disclosed herein may also be used for diagnosis and treatment of other conditions in which cells have become immortalized.
The use of microarray analysis of gene expression allows the identification of host sequences associated with cancer. These sequences may then be used in a number of different ways, including diagnosis, prognosis, screening for modulators (including both agonists and antagonists), antibody generation (for immunotherapy and imaging), etc.
However, as will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, sequences that are identified in one type of cancer may have a strong likelihood of being involved in other types of cancers as well.
Thus, while the sequences outlined herein may be initially identified as correlated with one or more types of cancers, they may also be found in other types of cancers as well.
[00142] Some embodiments described herein may be directed to the use of cancer associated sequences for diagnosis, prognosis, visualization and treatment of cancer.

Comparisons between samples known to contain cancer cells and samples known to be free of cancer cells can be made. The samples containing the cancer cells and those free of cancer may be comprised of cells of the same tissue type.
[00173] Some embodiments of the invention are directed to methods of identifying novel target markers useful in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer wherein expression levels of tnRNAs, miRNAs, proteins, or protein post translational modifications including but not limited to phosphorylation and sumoylation are compared between five categories of cell types: (1) immortal pluripotent stem cells (such as embryonic stem ("ES") cells, induced pluripotent stem ("iPS") cells, and germ-line cells such as embryonal carcinoma ("EC") cells) or gonadal tissues; (2) ES, iPS, or EC-derived clonal emblyonie progenitor ("EP") cell lines, (3) nucleated blood cells including but not limited to CD34+ cells and CD133+
cells; (4) normal mortal somatic adult-derived tissues and cultured cells including: skin fibroblasts, = -69-vascular endothelial cells, normal non-lymphoid and non-cancerous tissues, and the like, and (5) malignant cancer cells including cultured cancer cell lines or human tumor tissue. mRNAs, miRNAs, or proteins that are generally expressed (or not expressed) in categories 1, 3, and 5, or categories 1 and 5 but not expressed (or expressed) in categories 2 and 4 are candidate targets for cancer diagnosis and therapy. Some embodiments herein are directed to human applications, non-human veterinary applications, or a combination thereof.
[00174] In some embodiments, a method of identifying a target marker comprises the steps of: I) obtaining a molecular profile of the mRNAs, miRNAs, proteins, or protein modifications of immortal pluripotent stein cells (such as embiyonic stem ("ES") cells, induced pluripotent stem ("iPS") cells, and germ-line cells such as embryonal carcinoma ("EC") cells); 2) ES, iPS, or EC-derived clonal embryonic progenitor ("EP") cell lines malignant cancer cells including cultured cancer cell lines or human tumor tissues, and comparing those molecules to those present in mortal somatic cell types such as cultured clonal human embryonic progenitors, cultured somatic cells from fetal or adult sources, or normal tissue counterparts to malignant cancer cells, Target markers that are shared between pluripotent stem cells such as hES cells and malignant cancer cells, but are not present in a majority of somatic cell types may be candidate diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets.
[00175] Cancer associated sequences of embodiments herein are disclosed, for example, in Table I. These sequences were extracted from fold-change and filter analysis KC110729.5. Expression of these cancer associated sequences in normal and tumor tissues is disclosed in Table 2. Once expression was determined, the gene sequence results were further filtered by considering fold-change in cancer cell lines vs. normal tissue;
general specificity;
secreted or not, level of expression in cancer cell lines; and signal to noise ratio. The cancer associated polynucleotide sequences include a sequence disclosed in Table 1 or a homolog thereof. In some embodiments, the polynucleotide sequences may be mRNA
sequences selected from a sequence disclosed in Table 1, a complement thereof or a homolog thereof, in some embodiments, the cancer associated sequences may be DNA sequences encoding the above mRNA or the cancer associated protein or cancer associated polypeptide expressed by the above mRNA or homologs thereof. In some embodiments, the cancer associated sequence may be a mutant nucleic acid of the above disclosed sequences. In some embodiments, the homolog may have at least about 60%, at least about 65%, at least about 70%, at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, at least about 97%, at least about 98%, at least about 99%, at least about 99.5%
identity with the disclosed polypeptide sequence.

[00176] The disclosed methods for identifying diagnostic and/or detection markers of cancer and therapeutic targets for the same overlap in some but not all cases with telomerase activity. The disclosed methods may be used to screen for markers for any cancer, including without limitation: apudoma, choristoma, branchioma, malignant carcinoid syndrome, carcinoid heart disease, carcinoma (e.g., Walker, basal cell, basosquamous, Brown-Pearce, ductal, Ehrlich tumor, in situ, Krebs 2, merkel cell, mucinous, non-small cell lung, oat cell, papillary, scirrhous, bronchiolar, bronchogenic, squatnous cell, and transitional-cell), histiocytic disorders, leukemia (e.g., b-cell, mixed-cell, null-cell, T-cell, T-cell chronic, HTLV-II-associated, lyphocytic acute, lymphocytic chronic, mast-cell, and myeloid), histiocytosis malignant, Hodgkin's disease, irmnunoproliferative small, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, plasmacytoma, reticuloendotheliosis, melanoma, chondroblastoma, chondroma, chondrosarcoma, fibroma, fibrosarcoma, giant cell tumors, histiocytoma, lipoma, liposarcoma, mesothelioma, myxoma, tnyxosarcoma, ostcoma, osteosarcoma, Ewing's sarcoma, synovioma, adenofibroma, adenolymphoma, carcinosarcoma, chordoma, craniopharyngioma, dysgerminoma, hamartoma, mesenchymoma, mesonephroma, myosarcoma, ameloblastoma, cementoma, odontoma, teratoma, thymotna, trophoblastic tumor, adenocarcinoma;
adenoma, cholangioma, cholesteatoma, cylindroma, cystadenocarcinoma, cystadenoma, granulosa cell tumor, gynandroblastoma, hepatoma, hidradenoma, islet cell tumor, leydig cell tumor, papilloma, sertoli cell tumor, theca cell tumor, leiomyoma, leiomyosarcoma, myoblastoma, tnyoma, inyosarcoma, rhabdomyoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, ependymoma, ganglioneuroma, glioma, medulloblastoma, meningioma, neurilemmoma, neuroblastoma, neuroepithelioma, neurofibroma, neuroma, paraganglioma, paraganglioma nonchromaffin, angiokeratoma, angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophi I ia, angioma sclerosing, angiomatosis, glomangioma, hemangioendothelioma, hemangioma, hemangiopericytoma, hemangiosarcoma, lymphangioma, lymphangiomyoma, lymphangiosarcoma, pinealoma, carcinosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, cystosarcoma phyllodes, fibrosarcoma, hemangiosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, leukosarcoma, liposarcoma, lymphangiosarcoma, myosarcoma, myxosarcotna, osteosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, sarcoma (e.g., Ewing's, experimental, Kaposi's, and mast-cell), neoplasms of the bone, breast, digestive system, colorectal, liver, pancreatic, pituitary, testicular, orbital, head and neck, central nervous system, acoustic, pelvic, respiratory tract, and urogenital trect, neurofibromatosis, and cervix dysplasia, and for treatment of other conditions in which cells have become immortalized.
[00177] The pattern of gene expression in a particular living cell may be characteristic of its current state. Nearly all differences in the state or type of a cell are reflected in the differences in RNA levels of one or more genes. Comparing expression patterns of uncharacterized genes may provide clues to their function. High throughput analysis of expression of hundreds or thousands of genes can help in (a) identification of complex genetic diseases, (b) analysis of differential gene expression over time, between tissues and disease states, and (c) drug discovery and toxicology studies. Increase or decrease in the levels of expression of certain genes correlate with cancer biology, For example, oncogenes are positive regulators of tumorigenesis, while tumor suppressor genes are negative regulators of tumorigenesis. (Marshall, Cell, 64: 313-326 (1991); Weinberg, Science, 254:

(1991)). Accordingly, some embodiments herein provide for polynueleotide and polypeptide sequences involved in cancer and, in particular, in oncogenesis.
1001781 Oncogenes are genes that can cause cancer. Carcinogenesis can occur by a wide variety of mechanisms, including infection of cells by viruses containing oncogenes, activation of protooncogenes in the host genome, and mutations of protooncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. Carcinogenesis is fundamentally driven by somatic cell evolution (i.e.
mutation and natural selection of variants with progressive loss of growth control). The genes that serve as targets for these somatic mutations are classified as either protooncogenes or tumor suppressor genes, depending on whether their mutant phenotypes are dominant or recessive, respectively.
[00179] It will be appreciated that there are various methods of obtaining expression data and uses of the expression data. For example, the expression data that can be used to detect or diagnose a subject with cancer can be obtained experimentally. In some embodiments, obtaining the expression data comprises obtaining the sample and processing the sample to experimentally determine the expression data. The expression data can comprise expression data for one or more of the cancer associated sequences described herein.
The expression data can be experimentally determined by, for example, using a microarray or quantitative amplification method such as, but not limited to, those described herein. In some embodiments, obtaining expression data associated with a sample comprises receiving the expression data from a third party that has processed the sample to experimentally determine the expression data.
100180] Detecting a level of expression or similar steps that are described herein may be done experimentally or provided by a third-party as is described herein.
Therefore, for example, "detecting a level of expression" may refer to experimentally measuring the data and/or having the data provided by another party who has processed a sample to determine and detect a level of expression data. In some embodiments, the expression data may be detected experimentally and provided by a third party.

[00181] The comparison of gene expression on an mRNA level using Illumina gene expression microarrays hybridized to RNA probe sequences (shown in Table 1) prepared from the diverse categories of cell types: 1) human embryonic stern ("ES") cells, or gonadal tissues 2) ES, iPS, or EC-derived clonal embryonic progenitor ("EP") cell lines, 3) nucleated blood cells including but not limited to CD34+ cells and CD133+ cells; 4) Normal mortal somatic adult-derived tissues and cultured cells including: skin fibroblasts, vascular endothelial cells, normal non-lymphoid and non-cancerous tissues, and the like, and 5) malignant cancer cells including cultured cancer cell lines or human tumor tissue and filters was performed to detect genes that are generally expressed (or not expressed) in categories 1, 3, and 5, or categories I
and 5 but not expressed (or expressed) in categories 2 and 4. Therapies in these cancers based on this observation would be based on reducing the expression of the above referenced transcripts up-regulated hi cancer, or otherwise reducing the expression of the gene products.
100182] Gene Expression Assays: Measurement of the gene expression levels may be performed by any known methods in the art, including but not limited to quantitative PCR, or microarray gene expression analysis, bead array gene expression analysis and Northern analysis. The gene expression levels may be represented as relative expression normalized to the ADPRT (Accession number NM 001618.2), GAPD (Accession number NM 002046.2), or other housekeeping genes known in the art. In the case of microarrayed probes of mRNA
expression, the gene expression data may also be normalized by a median of medians method.
In this method, each array gives a different total intensity. Using the median value is a robust way of comparing cell lines (arrays) in an experiment. As an example, the median was found for each cell line and then the median of those medians became the value for normalization.
The signal from the each cell line was made relative to each of the other cell lines.
1001831 RNA extraction: Cells of the present disclosure may be incubated with 0.05%
trypsin and 0.5 niM EDTA, followed by collecting in DMEM (Gibco, Gaithersburg, MD) with 0.5% BSA. Total RNA may be purified from cells using the RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany).
[00184] Isolation of total RNA and miRNA from human embryonic stem cells and differentiated progeny cells: Total RNA or samples enriched for small RNA
species may be isolated from cell cultures that undergo serum starvation prior to harvesting RNA to approximate cellular growth arrest observed in many mature tissues. Cellular growth arrest may be performed by changing to medium containing 0.5% serum for 5 days, with one medium change 2-3 days after the first addition of low serum medium. RNA may be harvested according to the vendor's instructions for Qiagen RNEasy kits to isolate total RNA
or Ambion mirVana kits to isolate RNA enriched for small RNA species. The RNA

concentrations may be determined by spectrophotometiy and RNA quality may be determined by denaturing agamse gel electrophoresis to visualize 28S and I 8S RNA.
Samples with clearly visible 28S and 18S bands without signs of degradation and at a ratio of approximately 2:1, 28S:18S may be used for subsequent miRNA analysis.
[00185] Assay for miRNA in samples isolated from human embryonic stem cells and differentiated progeny cells: The miRNAs may be quantitated using a Human Panel TaqMan MicroRNA Assay from Applied Biosystems, Inc. This is a two-step assay that uses stem-loop primers for reverse transcription (RT) followed by real-time TaqMan . A total of 330 miRNA assays may be performed to quantitate the levels of miRNA in the H9 human embryonic stem cell line, a differentiated fibroblast cell line, and nine cell lines differentiated from human embryonic stem cells. The assay includes two steps, reverse transcription (RT) and quantitative PCR. Real-time PCR may be performed on an Applied Biosystems Real-Time PCR System. The copy number per cell may be estimated based on the standard curve of synthetic mir-16 miRNA and assuming a total RNA mass of approximately I 5pg/cell.
[00186] The reverse transcription reaction may be performed using lx cDNA
archiving buffer, 3.35 units MMLV reverse transcriptase, 5mM each dNTP, 1.3 units AB
RNase inhibitor, 2.5 nM 330-plex reverse primer (RP), 3 ng of cellular RNA in a final volume of 5 pl. The reverse transcription reaction may be performed on a BioRad or MJ
thermocycler with a cycling profile of 20 C for 30 sec; 42 C for 30 sec; 50 C for 1 sec, for 60 cycles followed by one cycle of 85 C for 5 min.
[00187] Real-time PCR. Two microlitres of 1:400 diluted Pre-PCR product may be used for a 20 ul reaction. All reactions may be duplicated. Because the method is very robust, duplicate samples may be sufficient and accurate enough to obtain values for miRNA
expression levels. TaqMan universal PCR master mix of ABI may be used according to manufacturer's suggestion. Briefly, lx TaqMan Universal Master Mix (ABI), 1 uM
Forward Primer, I uM Universal Reverse Primer and 0.2 uM TaqMan Probe may be used for each real-time PCR. The conditions used may be as follows: 95 C for 10 min, followed by 40 cycles at 95 C for 15 s, and 60 C for I min. All the reactions may be run on ABI Prism 7000 Sequence Detection System.
[00188] Microarray hybridization and data processing. cDNA samples and cellular total RNA (5 pg in each of eight individual tubes) may be subjected to the One-Cycle Target Labeling procedure for biotin labeling by in vitro transcription (1VT) (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) or using the Illtunina Total Prep RNA Labelling kit. For analysis on Affymetix gene chips, the cRNA may be subsequently fragmented and hybridized to the Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (Affymetrix) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
The microarray image data may be processed with the GeneChip Scanner 3000 (Affymetrix) to generate CEL data. The CEL data may be then subjected to analysis with dChip software, which has the advantage of normalizing and processing multiple datasets simultaneously.
Data obtained from the eight nonamplified controls from cells, from the eight independently amplified samples from the diluted cellular RNA, and from the amplified cDNA
samples from 20 single cells may be normalized separately within the respective groups, according to the program's default setting. The model based expression indices (MBEI) may be calculated using the PM/MM difference mode with log-2 transformation of signal intensity and truncation of low values to zero. The absolute calls (Present, Marginal and Absent) may be calculated by the Affymetrix Micromay Software 5.0 (MAS 5.0) algorithm using the dChip default setting. The expression levels of only the Present probes may be considered for all quantitative analyses described below. The GEO accession number for the microarray data is GSE4309. For analysis on Illumina Human HT-12 v4 Expression Bead Chips, labeled cRNA
may be hybridized according to the manufacturer's instructions.
1001891 Calculation of coverage and accuracy. A true positive is defined as probes called Present in at least six of the eight nonamplified controls, and the true expression levels are defined as the log-averaged expression levels of the Present probes. The definition of coverage is (the number of truly positive probes detected in amplified samples)/(the number of truly positive probes). The definition of accuracy is (the number of truly positive probes detected in amplified samples)/(the number of probes detected in amplified samples). The expression levels of the amplified and nonamplified samples may be divided by the class interval of 20.5 (20, 20.5, 21, 21.5...), where accuracy and coverage are calculated. These expression level bins may be also used to analyze the frequency distribution of the detected probes.
[001901 Analysis of gene expression profiles of cells: The unsupervised clustering and class neighbor analyses of the microarray data from cells may be performed using GenePattern software (http:thmw.broad.mitedu/cancer/ software/genepattern/), which performs the signal-to-noise ratio analysis/T-test in conjunction with the permutation test to preclude the contribution of any sample variability, including those from methodology and/or biopsy, at high confidence. The analyses may be conducted on the 14,128 probes for which at least 6 out of 20 single cells provided Present calls and at least 1 out of 20 samples provided expression levels >20 copies per cell. The expression levels calculated for probes with Absent/Marginal calls may be truncated to zero. To calculate relative gene expression levels, the Ct values obtained with Q-PCR analyses may be corrected using the efficiencies of the individual primer pairs quantified either with whole human genome (BD Biosciences) or plasmids that contain gene fragments. The relative expression levels may be further transformed into copy numbers with a calibration line calculated using the spike RNAs included in the reaction mixture (logio[expression level] = 1.05 x logio[copy number] + 4.65). The Chi-square test for independence may be performed to evaluate the association of gene expressions with Gata4, which represents the difference between cluster I and cluster 2 determined by the unsupervised clustering and which is restricted to PE at later stages. The expression levels of individual genes measured with Q-PCR may be classified into three categories:
high (>100 copies per cell), middle (I 0¨l00 copies per cell), and low (<10 copies per cell). The Chi-square and P-values for independence from Gata4 expression may be calculated based on this classification. Chi squared is defined as follows: x2 = EZ (n fij - fi fj)2/n fi fj, where i and j represent expression level categories (high, middle or low) of the reference (Gata4) and the target gene, respectively; fi, fj, and fij represent the observed frequency of categories i, j and ij, respectively; and n represents the sample number (n = 24). The degrees of freedom may be defined as (r x (c - 1), where r and c represent available numbers of expression level categories of Gata4 and of the target gene, respectively.
Stimulating an Immune Response Against Cancer Cells [00191] In some embodiments, antigen presenting cells (APCs) may used to activate T
lymphocytes in vivo or ex vivo, to elicit an immune response against cells expressing a cancer associated sequence. APCs are highly specialized cells and may include, without limitation, macrophages, monocytes, and dendritic cells (DCs). APCs may process antigens and display their peptide fragments on the cell surface together with molecules required for lymphocyte activation. In some embodiments, the APCs may be dendritic cells. DCs may be classified into subgroups, including, e.g., follicular dendritic cells, Langerhans dendritic cells, and epidermal dendritic cells.
1001921 Some embodiments are directed to the use of cancer associated polypeptides and polynucleotides encoding a cancer associated sequence, a fragment thereof, or a mutant thereof, and antigen presenting cells (such as, without limitation, dendritic cells), to elicit an immune response against cells expressing a cancer-associated polypeptide sequence, such as, without limitation, cancer cells, in a subject. In some embodiments, the method of eliciting an immune response against cells expressing a cancer associated sequence comprises (1) isolating a hetnatopoietic stem cell, (2) genetically tnodifying the cell to express a cancer associated sequence, (3) differentiating the cell into DCs; and (4) administering the DCs to the subject (e.g., human patient). In some embodiments, the method of eliciting an immune response includes (1) isolating DCs (or isolation and differentiation of DC precursor cells), (2) pulsing the cells with a cancer associated sequence, and; (3) administering the DCs to the subject.

These approaches are discussed in greater detail, infra. In some embodiments, the pulsed or expressing DCs may be used to activate T lymphocytes ex vivo. These general techniques and variations thereof may be within the skill of those in the art (see, e.g., W097/29182; WO
97/04802; WO 97/22349; WO 96/23060; WO 98/01538; Hsu et at., 1996, Nature Med.
2:52-58), and that still other variations may be discovered in the future. In some embodiments, the cancer associated sequence is contacted with a subject to stimulate an immune response. In some embodiments, the immune response is a therapeutic immune response. In some embodiments, the immune response is a prophylactic immune response. For example, the cancer associated sequence can be contacted with a subject under conditions effective to stimulate an immune response. The cancer associated sequence can be administered as, for example, a DNA molecule (e.g. DNA vaccine), RNA molecule, or polypeptide, or any combination thereof. Administering sequence to stimulate an immune response is known, but the identity of which sequences to use was not known prior to the present disclosure. Any sequence or combination of sequences disclosed herein or a homolog thereof can be administered to a subject to stimulate an immune response.
[00193] In some embodiments, dendritie cell precursor cells are isolated for transduction with a cancer associated sequence, and induced to differentiate into dendritie cells. The genetically modified DCs express the cancer associated sequence, and may display peptide fragments on the cell surface.
1001941 In some embodiments, the cancer associated sequence expressed comprises a sequence of a naturally occurring protein. In some embodiments, the cancer associate sequence does not comprise a naturally occurring sequence. As already noted, fragments of naturally occurring proteins may be used; in addition, the expressed polypeptide may comprise mutations such as deletions, insertions, or amino acid substitutions when compared to a naturally occurring polypeptide, so long as at least one peptide epitope can be processed by the DC and presented on a MHC class I or II surface molecule. In some embodiments, it may be desirable to use sequences other than "wild type," in order to, for example, increase antigenicity of the peptide or to increase peptide expression levels. In some embodiments, the introduced cancer associated sequences may encode variants such as polymorphic variants (e.g., a variant expressed by a particular human patient) or variants characteristic of a particular cancer (e.g., a cancer hi a particular subject).
[00195] In some embodiments, a cancer associated expression sequence may be introduced (transduced) into DCs or stein cells in any of a variety of standard methods, including transfection, recombinant vaccinia viruses, adeno-associated viruses (AAVs), retroviruses, etc.

[00196] In some embodiments, the transformed DCs of the invention may be introduced into the subject (e.g., without limitation, a human patient) where the DCs may induce an immune response. Typically, the immune response includes a cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against target cells bearing antigenic peptides (e.g., in a MHC
class llpeptide complex). These target cells are typically cancer cells.
[00197] In some embodiments, when the DCs are to be administered to a subject, they may preferably isolated from, or derived from precursor cells from, that subject (i.e., the DCs may administered to an autologous subject). However, the cells may be infused into HLA-matched allogeneic or FILA-mistnatched allogeneic subject. In the latter case, immunosuppressive drugs may be administered to the subject.
1001981 In some embodiments, the cells may be administered in any suitable manner.
In some embodiments, the cell may be administered with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier (e.g., saline). In some embodiments, the cells may be administered through intravenous, intra-articular, intramuscular, intradermal, intraperitoneal, or subcutaneous routes. Administration (i.e., immunization) may be repeated at time intervals.
Infusions of DC may be combined with administration of cytokines that act to maintain DC
number and activity (e.g,, GM-CSF, 1001991 In some embodiments, the dose administered to a subject may be a dose sufficient to induce an immune response as detected by assays which measure T
cell proliferation, T lymphocyte cytotoxicity, and/or effect a beneficial therapeutic response in the patient over time, e.g., to inhibit growth of cancer cells or result in reduction in the number of cancer cells or the size of a tumor.
[00200] In some embodiments, DCs are obtained (either from a patient or by in vitro differentiation of precursor cells) and pulsed with antigenic peptides having a cancer associated sequence. The pulsing results in the presentation of peptides onto the surface MHC
molecules of the cells. The peptide/MI-IC complexes displayed on the cell surface may be capable of inducing a MEC-restricted cytotoxic T-lymphocyte response against target cells expressing cancer associated polypeptides (e.g., without limitations, cancer cells).
1002011 In some embodiments, cancer associated sequences used for pulsing may have at least about 6 or 8 amino acids and fewer than about 30 amino acids or fewer than about 50 amino acid residues in length. In some embodiments, an immunogenic peptide sequence may have from about 8 to about 12 amino acids. In some embodiments, a mixture of human protein fragments may be used; alternatively a particular peptide of defined sequence may be used, The peptide antigens may be produced by de novo peptide synthesis, enzymatic digestion of purified or recombinant human peptides, by purification of the peptide sequence from a natural source (e.g., a subject or tumor cells from a subject), or expression of a recombinant polynueleotide encoding a human peptide fragment.
1002021 In some embodiments, the amount of peptide used for pulsing DC may depend on the nature, size and purity of the peptide or polypeptide. In some embodiments, an amount of from about 0.05 ug/ml to about 1 mg/ml, from about 0.05 ug/ml to about 500 ug/ml, from about 0.05 ug/m1 to about 250 ug/ml, from about 0.5 ug/ml to about 1 mg/nil, from about 0.5 ug/ml to about 500 ug/ml, from about 0.5 ug/ml to about 250 ug/ml, or from about 1 ug/ml to about 100 ug/ml of peptide may be used. After adding the peptide antigen(s) to the cultured DC, the cells may then be allowed sufficient time to take up and process the antigen and express antigen peptides on the cell surface in association with either class 1 or class II MEC. In some embodiments, the time to take up and process the antigen may be about 18 to about 30 hours, about 20 to about 30 hours, or about 24 hours.
[00203] Numerous examples of systems and methods for predicting peptide binding motifs for different MI-IC Class 1 and II molecules have been described. Such prediction could be used for predicting peptide motifs that will bind to the desired MHC
Class I or H
molecules. Examples of such methods, systems, and databases that those of ordinary skill in the art might consult for such purpose include:

restriction"). Different HLA alleles will bind particular peptide motifs (usually 2 or 3 highly conserved positions out of 8-10) with different energies which can be predicted theoretically or measured as dissociation rates. Thus, a skilled artisan may be able to tailor the peptides to a subject's 1-LA profile.
Introducing Cancer Associated Sequences Into Cells [00207] Some embodiments provide for antigens (e.g., cancer-associated polypeptides) associated with a variety of cancers as targets for diagnostic and/or therapeutic antibodies. These antigens may also be useful for drug discovery (e.g., small molecules) and for further characterization of cellular regulation, growth, and differentiation, [00208] In some embodiments cells may be transfected with one or more of the cancer associated sequences disclosed herein. In some embodiments the cell may be a dendritic cell.
Dendritie cells transfected with one or more of the cancer associated sequences may be used as antigen presenting cells to stimulate an immune response against one or more of the cancer associated sequences disclosed infra, [00209] Any method known in the art may be used to transfect a cell with one or more of the cancer associated sequences disclosed infra, Electroporation may be used to introduce the cancer associated nucleic acids described herein into mammalian cells (Neumann, E. et al.
(1982) EMBO J. I, 841-845), plant and bacterial cells, and may also be used to introduce proteins (Marrero, M.B. et al. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 15734-15738;
Nolkrantz, K. et al.
(2002) Anal. Chem. 74, 4300-4305; Rui, M. et al. (2002) Life Sci. 71, 1771-1778). Cells (such as the cells of this invention) suspended in a buffered solution of the purified protein of interest are placed in a pulsed electrical field. Briefly, high-voltage electric pulses result in the formation of small (nanometer-sized) pores in the cell membrane. Proteins enter the cell via these small pores or during the process of membrane reorganization as the pores close and the cell returns to its normal state. The efficiency of delivery may be dependent upon the strength of the applied electrical field, the length of the pulses, temperature and the composition of the buffered medium. Electroporation is successful with a variety of cell types, even some cell lines that are resistant to other delivery methods, although the overall efficiency is often quite low. Some cell lines may remain refractory even to electroporation unless partially activated.
[00210] Microinjection may be used to introduce femtoliter volumes of DNA
directly into the nucleus of a cell (Capecchi, M.R. (1980) Cell 22, 470-488) where it can be integrated directly into the host cell genome, thus creating an established cell line bearing the sequence of interest. Proteins such as antibodies (Abarzua, P. et al. (1995) Cancer Res. 55, 3490-3494;
Theiss, C. and Metier, K. (2002) Exp. Cell Res. 281, 197-204) and mutant proteins (Naryanan, A. et at. (2003) J. Cell Sci. 116, 177-186) can also be directly delivered into cells via tnicroinjection to determine their effects on cellular processes firsthand.
Microinjection has the advantage of introducing macromolecules directly into the cell, thereby bypassing exposure to potentially undesirable cellular compartments such as low-pH
endosomes.
[00211] Several proteins and small peptides have the ability to transduce or travel through biological membranes independent of classical receptor-mediated or endoeytosis-mediated pathways. Examples of these proteins include the HIV-1 TAT protein, the herpes simplex virus 1 (ISV-1) DNA-binding protein VP22, and the Drosophila Antennapedia (Antp) homeotic transcription factor. In some embodiments, protein transduction domains (PTDs) from these proteins may be fused to other macromolecules, peptides or proteins such as, without limitation, a cancer associated polypeptide to successfully transport the polypeptide into a cell (Schwarze, S.R. et al. (2000) Trends Cell Biol. 10, 290-295).
Exemplary advantages of using fusions of these transduction domains is that protein entry is rapid, concentration-dependent and appears to work with difficult cell types (Fenton, M. et al.
(1998) J. Immunol. Methods 212, 41-48).
100212] In some embodiments, liposomes may be used as vehicles to deliver oligonucleotides, DNA (gene) constructs and small drug molecules into cells (Zabner, J. et at.
(1995) J. Biol, Chem. 270, 18997-19007; Feigner, P.L, et al. (1987) Proc.
Nati, Acad, Sci.
USA 84, 7413-7417). Certain lipids, when placed in an aqueous solution and sonicated, form closed vesicles consisting of a circularized lipid bilayer surrounding an aqueous compartment.
The vesicles or Iiposomes of embodiments herein may be formed in a solution containing the molecule to be delivered. In addition to encapsulating DNA in an aqueous solution, cationic liposomes may spontaneously and efficiently form complexes with DNA, with the positively charged head groups on the lipids interacting with the negatively charged backbone of the DNA. The exact composition and/or mixture of cationic lipids used can be altered, depending upon the macromolecule of interest and the cell type used (Feigner, J.H. et al. (1994) J. Biol.
Chem. 269, 2550-2561). The cationic liposome strategy has also been applied successfully to protein delivery (Zelphati, 0. et al. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 35103-35110).
Because proteins are more heterogeneous than DNA, the physical characteristics of the protein, such as its charge and hydrophobicity, may influence the extent of its interaction with the cationic lipids.
Capture Reagents and Binding Partners [00213] In certain embodiments of the invention provides capture reagents and specific binding partners for molecules encoded by the cancer associated sequences disclosed infra. The capture reagents and specific binding partners may be used to isolate a molecule, such as a nucleic acid encoding a cancer associated sequence disclosed infra, or a protein or protein fragment encoded by cancer associated sequence disclosed infra. The capture reagent and specific binding partners may be used to diagnose and/or detect cancer in a sample. The capture reagent or binding partner may be used as therapeutic to treat cancer, where the Cancer is associated with the expression of one or more cancer associated sequences disclosed infra.

1-1W=J1111/4? 1,4J.. -1./../ J1 [00214] The capture reagent and specific binding partner may be any molecule that specifically binds to a molecule encoded for by cancer associated sequence disclosed infra.
The may be a protein, peptide, a nucleic acid, including DNA, RNA, PNA and the like, a lipid, a carbohydrate, a small molecule, including inorganic and organic molecules and combination of a plurality of the foregoing molecules.
[00215] The capture reagent and binding partner may be, for example, a nucleic acid such as DNA molecule or a PNA molecule. The nucleic acid may bind to a sequence encoded for by cancer associated sequence, such as a DNA molecule, or an RNA molecule.
The capture reagent or binding partner may be, for example 5-500 nucleotides long, nucleotides long, 20-100 nucleotides long. The capture reagent or binding partner may be about 5, about 10, about 15, about 20, about 25, about 30, about 35, about 40 nucleotides long.
[00216] The capture reagent and specific binding partner may be, for example, a protein, including any protein that binds specifically to a molecule encoded for by cancer associated sequence. As an example, the capture reagent and specific binding partner may be an antibody. The antibody, may, for example bind to a protein or protein fragment encoded for by a cancer associated sequence.
[00217] Binding in IgG antibodies, for example, is generally characterized by an affinity of at least about 10-7 M or higher, such as at least about 10-8 M or higher, or at least about 10-9 M or higher, or at least about 10-10 or higher, or at least about 10-11 M or higher, or at least about 10-12 M or higher. The term is also applicable where, e.g., an antigen-binding domain is specific for a particular epitope that is not carried by numerous antigens, in which case the antibody or antigen binding protein cariying the antigen-binding domain will generally not bind other antigens. In some embodiments, the capture reagent has a Kd equal or less than 10-9 M, 10-1 M, or 101 M for its binding partner (e.g. antigen).
Ill some embodiments, the capture reagent has a Ka greater than or equal to 109 M-1 for its binding partner. Capture reagent can also refer to, for example, antibodies. Intact antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins, are typically tetrameric glycosylated proteins composed of two light (L) chains of approximately 25 kDa each, and two heavy (H) chains of approximately 50 =
kDa each. Two types of light chain, termed lambda and kappa, exist in antibodies.
Depending on the amino acid sequence of the constant domain of heavy chains, immunoglobulins are assigned to five major classes: A, D, E, G, and M, and several of these may be further divided into subclasses (isotypes), e.g., IgG I, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA 1, and IgA2. Each light chain is composed of an N-terminal variable (V) domain (VL) and a constant (C) domain (CL). Each heavy chain is composed of an N-terminal V
domain (VII), three or four C domains (CHs), and a hinge region. The CH domain most proximal to VH is designated CHI. The VH and VL domains consist of four regions of relatively conserved sequences named framework regions (FR!, FR2, FR3, and FR4), which form a scaffold for three regions of hypervariable sequences (complementarity determining regions, CDRs). The CDRs contain most of the residues responsible for specific interactions of the antibody or antigen binding protein with the antigen. CDRs are referred to as CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3.
Accordingly, CDR constituents on the heavy chain are referred to as HI, H2, and H3, while CDR constituents on the light chain are referred to as Li, L2, and L3. CDR3 is the greatest source of molecular diversity within the antibody or antigen binding protein-binding site. H3, for example, can be as short as two amino acid residues or greater than 26 amino acids. The subunit structures and three-dimensional configurations of different classes of itnmunoglobulins are well known in the art. For a review of the antibody structure, see Antibodies: A Laboratoty Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Eds. Harlow et al., 1988.
One of skill in the art will recognize that each subunit structure, e.g., a CH, VH, CL, VL, CDR, and/or FR structure, comprises active fragments. For example, active fragments may consist of the portion of the VH, VL, or CDR subunit that binds the antigen, i.e., the antigen-binding fragment, or the portion of the CH subunit that binds to and/or activates an _Fe receptor and/or complement.
[00218I Non-limiting examples of binding fragments encompassed within the term "antigen-specific antibody" used herein include: (i) an Fab fragment, a monovalent fragment consisting of the VL, VH, CL and CH1 domains; (ii) an F(ab')2 fragment, a bivalent fragment comprising two Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge at the hinge region;
(iii) an Fd fragment consisting of the VH and CHI domains; (iv) an Fv fragment consisting of the VL
and VI-I domains of a single arm of an antibody, (v) a dAb fragment, which consists of a VH
domain; and (vi) an isolated CDR. Furthermore, although the two domains of the Fv fragment, VL and VH, are coded for by separate genes, they may be recombinantly joined by a synthetic linker, creating a single protein chain in which the VL and VH
domains pair to form monovalent molecules (known as single chain Fv (seFv)). The most commonly used linker is a 15-residue (Gly4Ser)3 peptide, but other linkers are also known in the art. Single chain antibodies are also intended to be encompassed within the terms "antibody or antigen binding protein," or "antigen-binding fragment" of an antibody. The antibody can also be a polyclonal antibody, monoclonal antibody, chimeric antibody, antigen-binding fragment, Fe fragment, single chain antibodies, or any derivatives thereof.
[002191 Antibodies can be obtained using conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art, and the fragments are screened for utility in the same manner as intact antibodies. Antibody diversity is created by multiple germline genes encoding variable domains and a variety of somatic events. The somatic events include recombination of variable gene segments with diversity (D) and joining (J) gene segments to make a complete VH domain, and the recombination of variable and joining gene segments to make a complete VL domain. The recombination process itself is imprecise, resulting in the loss or addition of amino acids at the V(D).1 junctions. These mechanisms of diversity occur in the developing B
cell prior to antigen exposure. After antigenic stimulation, the expressed antibody genes in B
cells undergo somatic mutation. Based on the estimated number of germ line gene segments, the random recombination of these segments, and random VH-VL pairing, up to 1.6X107 different antibodies may be produced (Fundamental Immunology, 3rd ed. (1993), ed. Paul, Raven Press, New York, N.Y.). When other processes that contribute to antibody diversity (such as somatic mutation) are taken into account, it is thought that upwards of 1X101 different antibodies may be generated (hninunoglobulin Genes, 2nd ed. (1995), eds. Jonio et al., Academic Press, San Diego, Calif.). Because of the many processes involved in generating antibody diversity, it is unlikely that independently derived monoclonal antibodies with the same antigen specificity will have identical amino acid sequences.
[00220] Antibody or antigen binding protein molecules capable of specifically interacting with the antigens, epitopes, or other molecules described herein may be produced by methods well known to those skilled in the art. For example, monoclonal antibodies can be produced by generation of hybridomas in accordance with known methods.
Hybridotnas formed in this manner can then be screened using standard methods, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Biacore analysis, to identify one or more hybridotnas that produce an antibody that specifically interacts with a molecule or compound of interest. As an alternative to preparing monoclonal antibody-secreting hybridomas, a monoclonal antibody to a polypeptide of the present disclosure may be identified and isolated by screening a recombinant combinatorial immunoglobulin library (e.g., an antibody phage display library) with a polypeptide of the present disclosure to thereby isolate hninunoglobulin library members that bind to the polypeptide. Techniques and commercially available kits for generating and screening phage display libraries are well known to those skilled in the alt.
Additionally, examples of methods and reagents particularly amenable for use in generating and screening antibody or antigen binding protein display libraries can be found in the literature.
[00221] Examples of chhneric antibodies include, but are not limited to, humanized antibodies. The antibodies described herein can also be human antibodies. In some embodiments, the capture reagent comprises a detection reagent. The detection reagent can be any reagent that can be used to detect the presence of the capture reagent binding to its specific binding partner. The capture reagent can comprise a detection reagent directly or the capture reagent can comprise a particle that comprises the detection reagent.
In some embodiments, the capture reagent and/or particle comprises a color, colloidal gold, radioactive tag, fluorescent tag, or a chemiluminescent substrate. The particle can be, for example, a viral particle, a latex particle, a lipid particle, or a fluorescent particle.
[002221 The capture reagents (e.g. antibody) of the present disclosure can also include an anti-antibody, i.e. an antibody that recognizes another antibody but is not specific to an antigen, such as, but not limited to, anti-IgG, anti-IgM, or ant-IgE
antibody. This non-specific antibody can be used as a positive control to detect whether the antigen specific antibody is present in a sample. In some embodiments, the antibody binds to an epitope from a protein encoded by the nucleotide sequence disclosed in Table 1. In some embodiments, the epitope is a fragment of the protein sequence encoded by the nucleotide sequence of a sequence disclosed in Table 1, which is described herein. In some embodiments, the epitope comprises about I-10, 1-20, 1-30, 3-10, or 3-15 residues of the cancer associated sequence. In some embodiments, the epitope is not linear.
[002231 In some embodiments, the antibody binds to the regions described herein or a peptide with at least 90, 95, or 99% homology or identity to the region. In some embodiments, the fragment of the regions described herein is 5-10 residues in length. In some embodiments, the fragment of the regions (e.g. epitope) described herein are 3-5 residues in length. The fragments are described based upon the length provided. In some embodiments, the epitope is about 3, 4,5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, or 20 residues in length.
1002241 In some embodiments, the sequence to which the antibody binds may include both nucleic acid and amino acid sequences. In some embodiments, the sequence to which the antibody binds may include sequences having at least about 60% homology with the disclosed sequences. In some embodiments, the sequence to which the antibody binds may have at least about 65%, about 70%, about 75%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, about 97%, about 99%, about 99.8% homology with the disclosed sequences. In some embodiments, the sequences may be referred to as "mutant nucleic acids" or "mutant peptide sequences."
Treatment of Cancer 1002251 In some embodiments, cancers expressing one or more of the cancer associated sequences may be treated by antagonizing the cancer associated sequence's activity. In some embodiments, a method of treating cancer may comprise administering a therapeutic such as, without limitation, antibodies that antagonize the 1 igand binding to the cancer associated sequence, small molecules that inhibit the cancer associated sequence's expression or activity, siRNAs directed towards the cancer associated sequence, or the like. In some embodiments, a method of treating cancer may comprise administering an antibody against the protein to a subject in need thereof. In some embodiments, the antibody may be a monoclonal antibody or a polyclonal antibody. In some embodiments, the antibody may be a humanized or a recombinant antibody. Antibodies can be made that specifically bind to this region using known methods and any method is suitable. In some embodiments, the antibody specifically binds to a sequence disclosed in Table I or a fragment thereof.
100226] In some embodiments, a method of treating cancer (e.g. adenocarcinomas or other types of cancer) comprises detecting the presence of a cancer associated sequence's receptor and administering a cancer treatment. The cancer treatment may be any cancer treatment or one that is specific to the inhibiting the action of a cancer associated sequence.
For example, various cancers are tested to determine if a specific molecule is present before giving a cancer treatment. In some embodiments, therefore, a sample would be obtained from the patient and tested for the presence of a cancer associated sequence or the overexpression of a cancer associated sequence as described herein. In some embodiments, if a cancer associated sequence is found to be overexpressed, a cancer treatment or therapeutic is administered to the subject. The cancer treatment may be a conventional non-specific treatment, such as chemotherapy, or the treatment may comprise of a specific treatment that only targets the activity of the cancer associated sequence or the receptor to which the cancer associated sequence binds. These treatments can be, for example, an antibody that specifically binds to the cancer associated sequence and inhibits its activity.
1002271 In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides methods of treating cancer in a subject, the method comprising administering to a subject having cancer an agent that inhibits activity of any cancer associated sequence disclosed infra. In some embodiments the invention provides methods of treating cancer in a subject, the method comprising administering to a subject having cancer an agent that inhibits activity of one or more of gene expression and or protein expression encoded for by GNGTI, C I2orf56, COLIOA
SLC35D3, snaR-A, SBK I, DSCR8, CELSR3 or a complement thereof.
[00228] In some embodiments, the cancer cell may be targeted specifically with a therapeutic based upon the differentially expressed gene or gene product. For example, in some embodiments, the differentially expressed gene product may be an enzyme, which can convert an anti-cancer prodrug into its active form. Therefore, in normal cells, where the differentially expressed gene product is not expressed or expressed at significantly lower levels, the prodrug may be either not activated or activated in a lesser amount, and may be, therefore less toxic to normal cells. Therefore, the cancer prodrug may, in some embodiments, be given in a higher dosage so that the cancer cells can metabolize the prodrug, which will, for example, kill the cancer cell, and the normal cells will not metabolize the prodrug or not as well, and, therefore, be less toxic to the patient. An example of this is where tumor cells overexpress a metalloprotease, which is described in Atkinson et al., British Journal of Pharmacology (2008) 153, 1344-1352, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety and for the method of specifically targeting cancer cells.
Using proteases to target cancer cells is also described in Carl et PNAS, Vol. 77, No. 4, pp. 2224-2228, April 1980, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety and for the method of specifically targeting cancer cells. For example, doxorubicin or other type of chemotherapeutic can be linked to a peptide sequence that is specifically cleaved or recognized by the differentially expressed gene product. The doxorubicin or other type of chemotherapeutic is then cleaved from the peptide sequence and is activated such that it can kill or inhibit the growth of the cancer cell whereas in the normal cell the chemotherapeutic is never internalized into the cell or is not metabolized as efficiently, and is, therefore, less toxic, 1002291 In some embodiments, a method of treating cancer may comprise gene knockdown of one or more cancer associated sequences described herein. Gene knockdown refers to techniques by which the expression of one or more of an organism's genes is reduced, either through genetic modification (a change in the DNA of one of the organism's chromosomes such as, without limitation, chromosomes encoding cancer associated sequences) or by treatment with a reagent such as a short DNA or RNA
oligonucleotide with a sequence complementary to either an mRNA transcript or a gene. In some embodiments, the oligonucleotide used may be selected from RNase-FI competent antisense, such as, without limitation, ssDNA oligonucleotides, ssRNA oligonucleotides, phosphorothioate oligonueleotides, or chimeric oligonucleotides; RNase-independent antisense, such as morpholino oligonucleotides, 21-0-methyl phosphorothioate oligonucleotides, locked nucleic acid oligonucleotides, or peptide nucleic acid oligonucleotides; RNAi oligonucleotides, such as, without limitation, siRNA duplex oligonucleotides, or shRNA
oligonucleotides; or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, a plasmid may be introduced into a cell, wherein the plasmid expresses either an antisense RNA transcript or an shRNA
transcript. The oligo introduced or transcript expressed may interact with the target mRNA (ex. a sequence disclosed in Table 1) by complementary base pairing (a sense-antisense interaction).
[00230] The specific mechanism of silencing may vary with the oligo chemistry.
In some embodiments, the binding of a oligonucleotide described herein to the active gene or its transcripts may cause decreased expression through blocking of transcription, degradation of the mRNA transcript (e.g. by small interfering RNA (siRNA) or RNase-H
dependent antisense) or blocking either mRNA translation, pre-mRNA splicing sites or nuclease cleavage sites used for maturation of other functional RNAs such as miRNA (e.g. by Morpholino oligonucleotides or other RNase-H independent antisense). For example, RNase-1-1 competent antisense oligonueleotides (and antisense RNA transcripts) may form duplexes with RNA that are recognized by the enzyme RNase-1-1, which cleaves the RNA strand. As another example, RNase-independent oligonucleotides may bind to the mRNA and block the translation process. In some embodiments, the oligonucleotides may bind in the 5'-UTR and halt the initiation complex as it travels from the 5'-cap to the start codon, preventing ribosome assembly. A single strand of RNAi oligonucleotides may be loaded into the RISC
complex, which catalytically cleaves complementary sequences and inhibits translation of some mRNAs bearing partially-complementary sequences. The oligonucleotides may be introduced into a cell by any technique including, without limitation, electroporation, microinjection, salt-shock methods such as, for example, CaCl2 shock; transfection of anionic oligo by cationic lipids such as, for example, Lipofectamine; transfection of uncharged oligonucleotides by endosomal release agents such as, for example, Endo-Porter; or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the oligonucleotides may be delivered from the blood to the cytosol using techniques selected from nanoparticle complexes, virally-mediated transfection, oligonucleotides linked to oetaguanidinium dendrimers (Morpholino oligonucleotides), or any combination thereof.
1002311 In some embodiments, a method of treating cancer may comprise treating cells to knockdown or inhibit expression of a gene encoding the mRNA disclosed in Table I.
The method may comprise culturing hES cell-derived clonal embryonic progenitor cell lines CM02 and EN13 (see U.S. Patent Publication 2008/0070303, entitled "Methods to accelerate the isolation of novel cell strains from pluripotent stem cells and cells obtained thereby"; and U.S. patent application Ser. No, 12/504,630 filed on July 16, 2009 and titled "Methods to Accelerate the Isolation of Novel Cell Strains from Pluripotent Stem Cells and Cells Obtained Thereby", each of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety) with a retrovirus expressing silencing RNA directed to a cancer-associated sequence.

Samples came from cancer patients as well as patients who were cancer free (normal samples) In brief, 100 i.tL of the blank, standards, and samples with specified dilutions were added to the appropriate wells of a 96 well plate followed by 2 hours of incubation at 37 C. After removal of the liquid, 100u1 of Detection Reagent A was added to each well and incubated for 1 hour at 37 C. After removal of Reagent A, each well was washed 3 times with 350 uL of wash solution. 100 uL of Detection Reagent B was added to each well and then incubated for 30 minutes at 37 C. After removal of Reagent B, each well was washed 5 times with 350 uL
of wash solution. 90 id, of Substrate solution was added to each well and incubated for 15-25 minutes at 37 C. 50 uL of Stop Solution was added to each well. The plate was read either on the Molecular Devices SpectraMax250 or the BioTek Synergy H1 plate reader at 450mn. A
standard curve was derived from the standards supplied in the kit and the sample values were extrapolated from this curve.
[00322] The results shown in Figures 10-34 indicated that each of the markers analyzed were found to be elevated in the serum of various cancer patients compared to normal samples obtained from cancer free subjects.

[00323] qPCR was used to investigate the expression level of the following genes in various cancers, benign tumors and normal tissues: AMH_1038; ASCLI_1095; C
12orf56;
C2ort70 1010; COL10A, DSCR6 1066; DSCR8 1036; LHX8 1283; MMP11; MMP12;
NMU; SLC35D.

[00324] PCR primers were designed to be specific for the gene transcript of interest using the Standard Nucleotide BLAST program (NCBI) and to span at least one exon junction.
Primers were chosen to have Tins of 58-63 C calculated with the Breslatter equation, deltaG
values >25Kcal/mol and displaying no self-complementarity using Oligo Cale software.
Primers were ordered salt-free purified from the manufacturer (Eurofins MWG) [00325] RNA was derived from commercial sources (Asterand; OriGene) and cDNA
prepared using the SuperScript III First-Strand Synthesis System for RT-PCR
(Invitrogen Cat.
No. 18080-051) following the random hexamer protocol. Initial validation of primers assessed three major criteria: robustness, linearity and specificity. Acceptance criteria for absolute value robustness was that the final 2Adelta Ct value after subtracting housekeeping genes (GAPDH and GUSB) Ct values >1. Robustness in terms of differentiating disease from benign or normal samples required >2Ct difference of known positive over negative samples, as determined previously by mieroarray analysis (Illtunina). To assess linearity, primers were used to amplify ten-fold dilutions of cDNA. Only primers exhibiting at or near the expected 3.3 Ct shift upon ten-fold dilution of template proceeded for further testing.
Specificity was determined both by gel electrophoresis and from observing a single Tin generated from melting curve analysis on the instrument. PCR products were run on a 2%
agarose gel and only those generating a single band of expected size passed validation.
[00326] Protocols of initial primer validation differed from external validation performed on OriGene TissueScan qPCR arrays chiefly in terms of volume and cDNA target.

Sample input was between 3 to lOng of cDNA in a final reaction volume of 20uL.The real-time PCR instruments used were the AB1 7500 Real Time PCR System or the ABI 7900HT Sequence Detection System with the thermoprogram set for 50 C for 2 minutes, then 95 C for 10 minutes, followed by 40 cycles of 95 C
for 15 seconds and 60 C for I minute. Dissociation analysis was immediately performed using 95 C for 15 seconds, 60 C for 15 seconds and 95 C for 15 seconds.
[00333] Primers demonstrating good correlation and specificity for cancer, as well as exhibiting robustness and linear dose response to sample input proceeded for further testing.
TissueScan qPCR arrays (OriGene, Rockville, MD) were used to test larger number of cDNA
samples. The lyophilized cDNA in each well of the array was mixed with luM
final concentration of each of the forward and reverse primers using the Power SYBR
Green Master Mix Kit (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA) in a final reaction volume of 30uL.The real-time PCR instrument used was the AB1 7500 Real Time PCR System with the thermoprogram set for 50 C for 2 minutes, then 95 C for 10 minutes, followed by 40 cycles of 95 C for 15 seconds and 60 C for I minute. Dissociation analysis was immediately performed using 95 C for 15 seconds, 60 C for 15 seconds and 95 C for 15 seconds.
[00334] The results are presented in Figures 35-50 and show that the markers AMH 1038; ASCL 1095; Cl2orf56; C2orf70 0 10; COL1OA, DSCR6 1066;
DSCR8 1036; LHX8 1283; MMP 1; MMP12; NMU; SLC35D are elevated in various cancer types.

[00335] Expression of POTE was investigated by Immunofluoresence using tissue obtained from a breast cancer ductal carcinoma, a fibroadenoma and normal breast tissue.
1003361 Paraffin embedded tissue sections were obtained from Asterand (Detroit, MI). These specimens included: Normal breast tissue (donors with no history of cancer), fibroadenoma of the breast, breast ductal cell carcinoma, normal thyroid tissue (donors with no history of cancer), thyroid follicular adenoma and thyroid follicular carcinoma. Prior to the staining with antibodies, the sections were dewaxed in xylene and rehydrated in cycles of ethanol (100%, 95%, 70%) followed by a wash in distilled water. Antigen retrieval was performed in epitope retrieval buffer (IHC World #IW-1100) by incubating the slides at 95 `C
40 minutes using an IHC-Steamer Set (MC World #1W-I102). Inununostaining was performed using a monoclonal mouse anti-human POTE antibody (Kindly donated from Dr.
Ira Pastan) at a 1:100 dilution. The primary antibody was detected using an Alexa Fluor 594 Goat anti-mouse IgG (Life Sciences #A11032) at a 1:200 dilution.
1003371 Vectashield mounting medium with DAPI was used to preserve the stained samples (Vector Laboratories #H-1200). Images were taken with an exposure time of 400 milliseconds using a Nikon Eclipse TE2000-U at a magnification of 10,000 and an X-Cite 120 fluorescence illumination system (Lumen Dynamics).
[00338] The results are shown in figure 50 and demonstrate that PO FE is expressed in breast cancer tissue.

[00339] Expression of MMP1 I was investigated by Immunofluoresence using tissue obtained from a breast cancer ductal carcinoma, a fibroadenoma and normal breast tissue.
1003401 Paraffin embedded tissue sections were obtained from Asterand (Detroit, MI). These specimens included: Normal breast tissue (donors with no history of cancer), fibroadenoma of the breast, and breast ductal cell carcinoma, Prior to the staining with antibodies, the sections were dewaxed in xylene and rehydrated in cycles of ethanol (100%, 95%, 70%) followed by a wash in distilled water. Antigen retrieval was performed in epitope retrieval buffer (IHC World #IW-1100) by incubating the slides at 95 `C 40 minutes using an IHC-Steamer Set (MC World #IW-1102). Immunostaining was performed using a polyclonal rabbit anti-human MM1P11 antibody (Abeam #ab52904) at a 1:100 dilution. The primal), antibody was detected using an Alexa Fluor 594 Donkey anti-rabbit IgG (Life Sciences #A21207) at a 1:200 dilution.
[00341] Vectashield mounting medium with DAPI was used to preserve the stained samples (Vector Laboratories #H-1200). Images were taken with an exposure time of 400 milliseconds using a Nikon Eclipse TE2000-U at a magnification of 10,000 and an X-Cite 120 fluorescence illumination system (Lumen Dynamics).
[00342] The results are shown in figure 51 and demonstrate that MMP11 is expressed in breast cancer tissue.
[00343] Example 14 [00344] Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (gRT-PCR) was used to investigate expression of the genes LITD1 and APOBEC1 in colon cancer tissue and normal colon tissue, [00345] Total RNA was extracted with the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen) and cDNA
generated using the SuperScript III reverse transcriptase in combination with random hexamer primers alone or in combination with oligo-dT primers (all reverse transcription components from Invitrogen/Life Technologies). PCRs were carried out on a 7900HT Sequence Detection System or a 7500 Real Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems/Life Technologies) utilizing SYBR Green I (Applied Biosystems/Life Technologies) or TaqMan chemistries.
TaqMan PCR was conducted with probes from the Universal Probe Libraty (UPL) (Roche) in combination with correspondingly designed primers. Background: The UPL System contains a relatively small number of short hydrolysis probes that cover an extensive proportion of the human mRNA transcriptome. UPL probes contain locked nucleic acids (LNAs) which increase the probes' melting temperatures. This allows the probe and the longer, unmodified, primers to anneal at the same temperature.
[00346] The results are shown in figures 52-53 and demonstrate that L 1TD1 andAPOBEC1 are both expressed at elevated levels in colon cancer tissue relative to normal colon tissue, ;
